Oknoname 113067 dam
Oknoname 113067
Oknoname 113067 is a privately owned earth dam located in Skiatook, Oklahoma, with a primary purpose classified as "Other." The dam stands at a height of 20 feet and has a hydraulic height of 16 feet, with a length of 450 feet and a storage capacity of 150 acre-feet. It is regulated by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board and has been inspected regularly, with a low hazard potential and a very high risk assessment rating.
The dam, situated on the TR-Turkey Creek, is under the jurisdiction of the Tulsa District of the US Army Corps of Engineers. It features a controlled spillway and is equipped with a single valve outlet gate. Despite not being federally owned, the dam has met state permitting, inspection, and enforcement requirements. The last inspection was conducted in November 2001, with a scheduled inspection frequency of 5 years.
Water resource and climate enthusiasts will find Oknoname 113067 to be an intriguing case study in dam infrastructure management. With its unique design and purpose, the dam presents a blend of private ownership and state regulation, showcasing the importance of maintaining and assessing dam structures for potential risks and hazards. As the dam continues to be monitored and evaluated, its role in water resource management in Osage County, Oklahoma, remains vital to the surrounding community and ecosystem.

Condition Assessment
- Satisfactory
- No existing or potential dam safety deficiencies are recognized. Acceptable performance is expected under all loading conditions (static, hydrologic, seismic) in accordance with the minimum applicable state or federal regulatory criteria or tolerable risk guidelines.
- Fair
- No existing dam safety deficiencies are recognized for normal operating conditions. Rare or extreme hydrologic and/or seismic events may result in a dam safety deficiency. Risk may be in the range to take further action.
- Poor
- A dam safety deficiency is recognized for normal operating conditions which may realistically occur. Remedial action is necessary. POOR may also be used when uncertainties exist as to critical analysis parameters which identify a potential dam safety deficiency.
- Unsatisfactory
- A dam safety deficiency is recognized that requires immediate or emergency remedial action for problem resolution.
- Not Rated
- The dam has not been inspected, is not under state or federal jurisdiction, or has been inspected but, for whatever reason, has not been rated.
Hazard Potential Classification
- High
- Dams assigned the high hazard potential classification are those where failure or mis-operation will probably cause loss of human life.
- Significant
- Dams assigned the significant hazard potential classification are those dams where failure or mis-operation results in no probable loss of human life but can cause economic loss, environmental damage, disruption of lifeline facilities, or impact other concerns. Significant hazard potential classification dams are often located in predominantly rural or agricultural areas but could be in areas with population and significant infrastructure.
- Low
- Dams assigned the low hazard potential classification are those where failure or mis-operation results in no probable loss of human life and low economic and/or environmental losses. Losses are principally limited to the owner's property.
- Undetermined
- Dams for which a downstream hazard potential has not been designated or is not provided.

About Oknoname 113067
Where does the data for Oknoname 113067 come from?
Structural and regulatory data come from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' National Inventory of Dams (NID). Weather forecast comes from NOAA / yr.no -- the same feed Snoflo's iOS app uses.
How often is the report updated?
NID structural data refreshes annually as the Corps publishes updated assessments. The weather forecast refreshes throughout the day.
What does the Low hazard rating mean?
The Corps of Engineers' hazard potential classification grades probable consequences if the dam fails: High = probable loss of human life; Significant = no probable loss of human life but possible economic loss / environmental damage; Low = no probable loss of human life, only minor economic / environmental losses. See the Dam Data Reference card above for the full definitions.
What's "% of normal"?
The current storage value compared to the historical average storage on this calendar day. 100% = right on average; values above 100% mean above-normal storage (wet year); values below mean below-normal (dry year or drought).
Can I get alerts when storage crosses a threshold?
Yes -- alerts are managed in the Snoflo iOS app. Favorite this dam, set a threshold, and you'll get a push the moment conditions cross.
